* Your iniquities have turned away these things , and your sins have withholden good things from you . * For among my people are found wicked men : they lay wait , as he that setteth snares ; they set a trap , they catch men . * As a cage is full of birds , so are their houses full of deceit : therefore they are become great , and waxen rich . * They are waxen fat , they shine : yea , they overpass the deeds of the wicked : they judge not the cause , the cause of the fatherless , yet they prosper ; and the right of the needy do they not judge . * Shall I not visit for these things ? saith the LORD : shall not my soul be avenged on such a nation as this ? * A wonderful and horrible thing is committed in the land ; * The prophets prophesy falsely , and the priests bear rule by their means ; and my people love to have it so : and what will ye do in the end thereof ?
